LOVE IS LOVE

By cjensen, Goshen, NY

Love is love, and who's to say someone has the right to put a stop to this? This is exactly what people are doing by banning same sex marriage. I believe that everyone deserves a chance at happiness, and that is something every man and woman has a right to.

Why should legalizing same sex marriage be such an issue? Unless it affects the nation directly, it shouldn't even be a problem. There is nothing negative about legalizing such a thing, if anything it is beneficial. It would eliminate riots and violence amongst gays and straights.

Love is a natural human emotion. It isn't something that we can control; it is out of our hands. If we can't control our own emotions, what gives us the right to control the feelings of others?
